Looking to give an archery shop a lot of money

[elkoholic1]

I drive from concrete all the way down to ROCK CREEK ARCHERY, I wont let anyone but Denton touch my equipment..  well worth the drive IMO...

I bought a bow online (Diamond Edge Infinite) and Nock Point shamed me for buying a bow online and not in their store (they were serious, too, not joking) and GNW shamed me for the bow I bought, not that I bought it online. He called it a kids bow and wouldn't take any time dialing it in. I even offered to pay him for taking time to do it and he wasn't interested.

Doesn't bother me though, just means they won't get my cash now that I am ready to spend.

Sorry to hear that.  There is nothing wrong with the bow you bought.  You can kill a deer with that bow just as easily as with top of the line setup.

Archery World in Vancouver.

I understand the customer service is high on your list but equally important is the bow you choose. Shoot as many different bows as you can and purchase the one you're gonna be happy with and visit as many different shops as you can and hopefully you find a shop you'll be happy with and purchase the bow that you want. Shops like Riverside, XXX and Archery world have multiple high end brands to choose from.

Archery world joe or kyle.

I've had really good experiences at the Nock Point and at Rock Creek Archery in Enumclaw. I know XXX Archery down south somewhere has a really great reputation.

I drive 3 hrs to do business with XXX archery. This is slower time of year and wont be a mad house with orders and people. Corey will take the time and treat you great.

Rule 1
Buy only from a bow shop and not a canned store. 

Rule 2
Buy somewhat close to home or a distance you are willing to travel.  Bow shops do not like to repair or fix work another shop did, and certainly wont work on a bow you purchased somewhere else for free.

If you are near Mount Vernon you wont be disapointed with Riverside. Gary is a huge supporter of Silver Arrow Bowmen  and was a member as a little kid.  If you want help getting dialed in just ask.  Often times folks think/act like they know it all. If you dont present that way they will be eager to help. I've been fortunate enough to have bought 2 bows from him along with other gear and not felt the need to go elsewhere.

Additionally there are very few shops where you can shoot Bowtech and Mathews at the same shop.

Greatnorthwest is where I bought my bow last year.  Never felt rushed about any of the process.  He is a one person show, so maybe that was why you felt rushed??  I bought the bow, had it set up, cam timing confirmed, paper tuned and dialed in at 20 yards before I left the store.

I’ve had nothing but good experiences buying bows from Doug at great northwest archery as well. He takes his time and sets you up right.

Sportco in fife ask for Ryan. If you are ready to buy go sooner than later. Don't leave until you shoot a bullet hole through paper

...or in the floor! 

Sorry, too soon?

Try Rock Creek Archery in Enumclaw. For sure worth a stop at. That is where I bought my bow. Denton I think is the owner? Really nice guy, super patient, and won't steer you wrong.

Denton won’t *censored* you. And he has lessons available.

You want the best bow tuner in the state bar none go see charles at peninsula bow shop in belfar !!!  IMHO !!!  He's pretty busy on the weekends but during the week your good.  He has new and used bows. He will set your bow up to EXACT specs than the rest is up to you.He is the master of tune and will have you shooting nocks off before you leave. Ask the rest how many classes they have been to than ask charles.

I'll second this Ryan does a great job and will make sure your set up right before you leave and has no problem with answering as many questions that you have.
  I've dealt with him several times

Another  for Denton at Rock Creek.  I do all my own tuning and work but I drive to Denton from Yakima for strings.  My bow is always tuned and looking crisp
